Personal
   Branding
  Bret L. Simmons, Ph.D.
ISM-NV September 20, 2012
Main Points Today
1. Personal branding is a huge
   opportunity and responsibility
2. Being searchable and shareable is
   good for your business
3. Proper operating principles are the
   key to success
Personal Brand
If people don’t select you,
  spread the word about
  you, or pay a premium for
  your services, it’s because
  they don’t recognize your
  value.
                   (Seth Godin)
Value
What you can do uniquely
 well to help others
 address issues or solve
 problems that matter to
 them.
Personal Brand
1.Who are you?
2.Who do you want to
  help?
3.How do you want to help
  them?
Why You?
Why Now?

What most companies think
1. When we get started, people will
   show up
2. Well, we gave it a couple months,
   and no one showed up, so let’s quit

Falls & Decker, 2011
The Reality
• It takes at least SIX MONTHS
  before you will start seeing any
  demonstrable results and success
  from your blog

Falls & Decker, 2011
The Fundamentals
•   Listen first
•   Be responsive
•   Be honest
•   Provide value
•   Sell last

Falls & Decker 2011
Remember
• Social media marketing is about building
  relationships, not receipts. The receipts
  will come, but only if you invest the time
  and attention it takes to build
  relationships with your customers. Think
  lifetime value, not sale value

Falls & Decker, 2011, p. 180
